A former Barry hater here.
Oh please, Luke freaking Walton is shooting better from behind the line for christ's sake
He's only attempted 14 to Barry's 35 asshole.
If Luke Walton does better statistically, your achievements are moot, It's in the rule book.
More importantly, where is Whottt?
How can anyone hate on Barry? He's hillarious.
Actually, now I think about it, I don't want to know where Whottt is or what he is doing...after a performance like that from Brent, god knows what he could be doing![]()
Oh, that er is around. Probably thinking "I told you so!"![]()
I'm thinking as long as Barry keeps hitting about 75% from 3 he'll keep about half the haters off his case....if he should have the audacity to drop down to 40% again San Antonio'll again be Hater City USA.
More importantly for me...I like that the Spurs have finally made him a part of the offense as a regular thing, I think it helps his game. It definitely helps our offense.
Now Brent just has to atone for sucking ass against the Mavs...I don't mean his shooting either, I mean his bad ball handling. But that won't happen until the playoffs.
..I, never been a Barry hater, soi always supported this one.
but it's true Brent sucked in some games last yr so why bother where they are?
at least we're glad he's become a recent contributor to this team.
The people who don't see the other things that Brent does to help the team aside from his shooting are probably the same people who though Manu was a bust when he started with the Spurs (or worse, they are the same people who thought Hedo > Manu).
He won a dunk contest. I like him. I like him much better than that eater Jon Barry who held up the "3" sign 2 years ago against Dallas in the p.o.'s.![]()
well, there's only one time I hated Brent Barry and that's when he played an asshole for not signing a fan's autograph on that movie Jerry Maquire![]()
Last year he was missing everything, that's why a people hated him.
Looks like the samething is gonna happen to Micheal Finley, if he doesn't start hitting, but the past 3-4 games it seems he found his form again. Barry is feeling confident right now and is right in the head and that's what usually breaks it or makes it for most players.
Person that makes 1/1 FTs < Person that makes 999/1000 FTs
I like the way he's playing. I've liked the way he's played since he almost got traded and said so all along.
he seems to show up when there is trade rumor about him
He's pretty much shown up ever since then. I don't know who's been hating on him this season, but any hate is pretty baseless at present.
The issue is not hating him when his shot is not falling (last year) or not hating him when his shot is falling (this year). The issue is being able to see other things he does in a court outside his shot.
Even before the trade rumours last year, when he was shooting 40% (decent percentage but for some reason not good enough for Spurs Fans), he did other things to help the team. His passing ability, the way the O flowed when he was on the floor, etc.
It's easy supporting Barry when he is making more than 6 3-pointers out of 10 he shoots. But that % is not sustainable (I know, I sound just like whottt)
Oh, and one more thing.
The issue is being able to see, when his shot is not falling (which = "not playing well", for some posters), that he has the potential to play well.
Same as with Manu when he first started.
